    So much fun! There was an Earth Day event at the Off the Grid last night and it was so much fun. A beautiful day, lots of parking, great vendors, delicious food, live music and lots of fun activities for the kiddos. We had such a lovely evening and can't wait for the next one!

    Teo years of deadly virus and the popular Off the Grid has return to Pleasant Hill Wednesday Night. I been attending this Wednesday Night extravaganza since 2014 and it gets better. Hot or cold there are people that are coming to the park. Off the Grid has taken measure to make sure people who are not vaccinated are still wearing the mask. Instead of chairs in the park they now provide tables. Easy for Off the Grid to setup and take down. Pleasant Hill is the home for Off the Grid on Wednesday Night. Second biggest market to Fort Mason Friday Night.

    Pretty cool spot, I food was ok and the beer was nice. The vibe and live music was the highlight. I like that it's family friendly.

    My favorite Off the Grid in CoCo county! Yes, it's true... lil P-hill really knows how to throw a true Off the Grid Par-tay! The Pleasant Hill Off the Grid is one of the larger markets in the area and usually houses about 7-10 rotating food trucks. I love that they actually provide an adequate amount of lawn chairs that they are available for anyone to sit and lounge in. They also have three portable restrooms with hand sanitizer stations in them AND a little station where you can actually wash your hands! This Off the Grid is held right behind Michael's off of Gregory Lane, and there is always parking available. They usually have a beer garden available with beer and wine that's supplied by a local brewery or pub in the area. I also really enjoy their live music! This market is usually held every Wednesday year around from 5p-9p. During the summer it can get quite busy, but I've never had to wait a ridiculous amount of time in line. What I really enjoy most about this Off the Grid are the variety of great food trucks that they have! The food trucks are usually rotating but they tend to always have a nice spread of trucks that have different types of cuisines. They also usually have around 10 or so trucks whereas the Concord location usually only had about 5-7. Some of my absolute favorite food trucks frequent this Off the Grid! I'm utterly obsessed with Cousin's Maine Lobster truck. I literally had to ween myself off the truck for a while because I was coming almost every Wednesday to get their addicting lobster roll! Another favorite truck of mine is IzzyA's frozen custard truck. If and when this truck is present... a scoop of frozen custard will most likely be in my hand at any given time. There are several other trucks that come here that I enjoy as well. The variety, convenience, and entertainment is what constantly keeps me coming back. If you're in the Contra Costa are and are looking for good eats and good times, you should definitely check the Pleasant Hill Off the Grid out.

    This is a two star review. I came here at the recommendation of a co-worker and want to like it…read moremore than I did. I think the problem is that I couldn't get past the lack of a restroom in the area. They had some portables, but they are making food and we are supposed to eat it. Where are they washing their hands? This area is also pretty cold so if you go, make sure that you have a coat, scarf and hat. I'll never make that mistake again. But because of the cold, I didn't want to eat outside so our food got a cold, but it was good. My husband liked the food he got, but gluten free options are super limited. They get a third star because of the bar! Now there was only one person working there and that's fine because he could go get a snack or something and come back to pour drinks, but again. The restroom issue. Where does he wash his hands, what if he has a cold and sneezes into them, and so on. That's where my mind went. The vendors are quite nice and were helpful and weren't mean when they answered my GF questions and I appreciate that. So, this is like the little engine that could. I can see that it is a gathering spot for people and they have music and speakers which is cool. So I saw and felt a community vibe and people really seemed to like going. If I lived in the area, I may try it a bit more, but in all honestly, Oakland Museum's Off the Grid event is everything I wish this was. I'm sure that they will get there, but don't want to hang out while they figure it out.

    I'm not sure if the selection changes as I only went once, but the selection was smaller than I…read moreexpected and there wasn't that many people there.

    I've mentioned this statement in previous reviews: if you are going to be a food truck that…read morespecializes in an American classic such as burgers, hot dogs, Mac and cheese, or in this case, Philly cheesesteaks, you really need to blow me away and especially if you are going to charge an arm and a leg (more on that detail in a minute) I came across this place at the electric Caltrain launch party in Palo Alto. I have actually seen this food truck before but never had the opportunity to order from here so I thought today would be a good day. It seems like their claim to fame is that they use halal meat. I ordered the loaded P and a side of fries. I was pretty underwhelmed with the overall meal. The roll looked like it was bought from a general store and the cheese looked like nacho cheese you get in a can. I will give them credit that the fries tasted fresh but again, I was overall underwhelmed with the whole meal. Truthfully I would have considered giving this place four stars but the total cost of this meal came out to more than $30, which is a bit crazy. I understand we are going through an inflation period but a cheesesteak and fries costing that much is insane. Had the meal blown me away, I would have understood the high price. There may not be many cheesesteak shops in the Bay Area but there are enough where I can compare the quality and price of those shops to this truck. The quality of the sandwiches is definitely similar but the other places are way cheaper. Like I mentioned earlier, if you are going to be a truck that specializes in an American classic and are going to charge a hefty price, then be prepared to impress me. Unfortunately this truck did not pass that bar.

    Good portions and fast service for loaded fries. Beef was…read moremore like dehydrated chipped beef. The cheese was melted Velveeta. By the way, Velveeta and American cheese are milk products, not cheese.

    I've been to Tacos El Patron so many times--it's become my go-to whenever I'm heading to Costco…read moresince it's right on the way! Their fish tacos are incredible and the portions are huge. Honestly, one taco can be filling on its own. I've also tried the shrimp tacos and enchiladas, and both are really good. My husband usually gets a burrito, and that's always amazing too. Definitely recommend checking this place out! Try to come early, especially on weekends, because it gets really packed. It's not a big of a place so gets busy, ambiance is very casual.

    First I need to say that Jose rocks and was so so kind and the free birria taco he gave me was…read moreincredible. Best consommé I've ever had. Now for the bad news: I hate to write this review because everyone was so immensely nice but the super burrito was genuinely a let down and honestly difficult to finish. Problems: the burrito is enormous and incredibly mushy. So mushy that I literally couldn't lift it up without it flopping around. There is just zero structural integrity because the tortilla wasn't toasted/seared. The lengua was almost too soft which is crazy to say but the whole thing felt like baby food in my mouth. There was also no texture. Other than the meat everything else just tasted like one homogeneous mush. That also compounded with the flavors because they were all one mush as well. I couldn't tell there was sour cream in the burrito and it didn't taste like there was any salsa either. All to say there was nothing to cut through the fatty oily taste of everything else in the burrito. The tortilla was soft and oddly wet too. Overall, I cannot recommend the burrito here. It's not worth $20. How to improve: add more rice/lettuce/beans/something hard for texture (maybe even cook the meat longer to make it not so soft), and add more sour cream or lime or salsa to cut through the fat. Finally and most importantly grill or sear the tortilla at the end to give it some structural integrity. I really hate to write this review but I was just so disappointed after such an excellent experience in the restaurant. I'll be coming back but I won't be ordering the burrito.
